Media Collections

Use media collections to group media items that belong together. For example a video playlist, a series of sermons, a music album or a book series could be modeled as a media collection.

Media Collections will show up on the details page of a media item. Allowing your user to quickly navigate to other media items of the collection.

Here is an example of a media collection:

src/content/media-collections/sermon-series-1.json

{
  "label": "Sermon Series 1"
}

Media Collection Structure

A media collection is a JSON file that describes a media collection. The collection identifier is its filename without the .json suffix. Here is the available properties.

label

type: string
example: "Sermon Series 1"
required: true

The name of the media collection. The label can either be a fixed string or a translation key to support multiple locales. LightNet will try to lookup the translation with the key. If it does not find a translation with this key, it will return the key itself (this is how fixed strings work).
